Default HD shackles?

looking at lowering shackles for my 2000 silverado on ebay and came across 3" lowering shackles but they say will only fit HD models... i never knew there was a difference and was wondering if they would work on my 1500 which is not a HD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Nick

I helped a buddy install them on his RCSB and they hit the bottom of the bed. We had to dent the bed just to get them to fit...
